From Marrakech,
with Love

The Oberoi Marrakech is a monument to artisanal refinement and patience. It's hard to feign nonchalance upon entering this hotel's breathtaking entrance, where a high, intricately domed cedar wood ceiling—handcrafted by 250 artisans—displays jaw-dropping mastery of detail. The space leads into an impressive marble-floored courtyard lined with black-and-white zellige tiles and keyhole arches that hark back to the Moorish palaces of Andalusia. Inside, Berber and Moghul paintings, studded sofas (handmade in Casablanca), and arabesque-tiled fireplaces lend the atmosphere of a grand noble home in which you feel like the family's personal guest.
